This just happened to me for the first time, I noticed my phone was playing up a little before it happened, like when i hit the power button, the screen wouldn`t light up immediately, i had to hit it twice... then it shut off and wouldn`t turn on and even plugging it into the charger wouldn`t work...
I tried the POWER HOME buttons several times, (and i mean at least 15 tries) all for at least 30 seconds each time.. using different combinations, plugged into the PC, plugged into the main power, not plugged into anything.. I finally got it working by giving it a gentle knock on the side, I then held the power n home button and it reset funnily enough? (please don`t go try banging your expensive iphones because of what i said, but i`m just throwing my own experience out there to maybe help the tech`s suss the issue out?)

So i have this problem and ive been looking for any advice for it. I own a 3rd generation 32gb ipod touch and its stuck in the apple logo with a dim light. I tried force restore and recovery mode when it tries to restore in either it will go up to the bar and the apple and itunes will say waiting for ipod then error 9 or occasionally error 1601 if i use tiny umbrella and 4.0 firmware to downgrade it. before all this happened I downgrade it to 4.0 after i had restored it and it updated my ipod to 4.1. previously it had been jailbroken on 3.1.2 but i did not save my ssh so i cant downgrade. I dont know what to do. is there any way i can fix this or is it a lost cause. ANyone?

This is due to a lot of iphone apps being buggy. The fix is simple.
1) plug your phone to your computer while running iTunes.
2) do a hard reset (hold down home and sleep)
3) wait for iphone to do its reset. (Apple logo goes off, comes back)
4) keep holding down buttons til phone resets once again! it will display a "recovery mode" screen
5)choose to a) restoring from backup or b)setup as new iphone.

Here`s how to fix it. First, plug your iPhone into your computer USB and open iTunes. Hold down home and sleep buttons, wait for the phone to reset and keeping holding down the buttons. Let it reset one more time and it will go into recovery mode. Then choose restore from backup or or setup as a new iphone.
